A student told me 2011 will be a good year because he will get married in July. When I asked if he had met the bride he said he remembers her from childhood (pre-pubescent boys and girls are allowed to mingle). She is his first cousin.
He went to explain that 7 of his cousins will be marrying on that day... and they will all be marrying cousins.
Imagine, generation after generation of cousins within a family marrying each other. I can't imagine the effect on the gene pool.
Where was your header picture taken?
ReplyDeleteRemember the picture of the long road that I took between Blairstown and Marengo? This picture was taken a couple hundred yards from that one.
